Remembering all those affected by the tragic events of 9/11, 25 years ago today.
A commemorative Guard Change took place on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace this morning, during which The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester took the Royal Salute on behalf of The King.
The ceremony included performances of both US and UK National Anthems, Hymn to the Fallen and Amazing Grace.
Earlier this year, Their Majesties paid their respects at the 9/11 Memorial in New York, as part of the State Visit to the United States.
Ros Jones - Mayor of Doncaster retweeted
Today we remember all those killed in the 9/11 attacks, including 67 British nationals.
25 years on, the UK stands with the United States in remembrance, solidarity and shared resolve.
We will never forget.

25 years ago, 9/11 shocked the world.
Thousands of lives were lost, countless more changed forever.
We remember them, and the brave men and women who ran towards danger to help others.
Those seeking to divide us and destroy our way of life will never succeed.

This Back British Farming Day, we're supporting the people who feed our nation.
Following drought, we announced £65m to help farmers secure the infrastructure they need for the future.
Food security is national security. We're backing British farming, now and for the future.

Today, we remember the late Queen Elizabeth II.
We reflect on her legacy, her unparalleled record of public service, and her special bond with the British people.

Another example how, even on a local level, social media misinformation can be really impactful
Myself and the DFP team have fielded multiple emails over the weekend from understandably fuming veterans and locals
But, alas, it simply wasn't true

We’re cracking down on waste crime.
We want to make those who dump waste illegally and fail to handle it correctly face fines of up to £5,000.

Ros Jones - Mayor of Doncaster retweeted
For years, communities have been left to live alongside mountains of illegally dumped waste while criminal gangs profit.
It’s just not right.
So we’re cleaning up some of the worst sites in the country.
But we’re not just cleaning up after the criminals, we’re going after them. More officers, stronger powers, and much bigger fines.
These places have been ignored for too long. Not anymore.

Congratulations on your results from everyone at the Labour Party!
The climate is changing & that is a fact!
Summer 2026 is set to be the hottest on record, with multiple heatwaves, drought & predictions of lasting impacts on food production across the country.

Spoke with Doncaster's new farming and nature recovery champion, William Shaw, this week
Councillor Shaw is a farmer by trade. I spoke with him about how difficult the endless hot weather has been and will be

Labour is helping farmers through this and future dry summers with a £65 million support package.
Ros Jones - Mayor of Doncaster retweeted
This has been a relentless summer for British farmers.
The gruelling heat has drained water supplies, crop yields and incomes.
I understand the worry that comes with that, and I know farmers need more than the government's appreciation.
It's why I went to a farm in Cornwall today to speak to some of them and @NFUtweets directly about our support package.

I know I’ve got work to do to win the trust of Britain’s farmers.
Today we’re putting £65m more into supporting farmers through this drought and preparing for the summers ahead.
They’re on the frontline of a changing climate and they shouldn’t be left to face it alone.
The ability to grow our own food is national security. I’ll treat it that way.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The £65m is reprioritised from Defra's existing farming budget, not new money from the Treasury. Total agricultural spending remains unchanged as funds are diverted from other departmental programmes. fwi.co.uk/news/burnham-a… defrafarming.blog.gov.uk/2026/08/15/new…
